Scream Squad: Satanic Santa (Podcast)

What up Squad! On this holiday-themed episode, Chico and Jamie dig into the Satanic roots behind the jolly fat man we know as Santa Claus – could he really be the devil in disguise? Satanic Santa? We examine the darker side of Santa with Santa’s Slay and look into some of the sinister aspects to the Santa story, including the influence of slavery and colonialism on St. Nick’s “helper,” Zwarte Piet.

Then, we dive into some of the creepier aspects of Santa, including voyeurism and how Catholic guilt ties into being naughty or nice with Christmas Evil and Silent Night, Deadly Night. Plus, we take look at Krampus and what happens when Santa doesn’t come to town. So lock your windows, block your fireplace and tune in!
